Classic Yorkshire Pudding

Not a pudding, but a puffed pastry baked with meat drippings. We in the U.S. tend to think Yorkshire pudding and popovers are the same thing. Popovers are hard and very airy. Yorkshire pudding is softer and doesn't rise as high as a popover. Traditional

INGREDIENTS (for 8 servings):

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 cup whole milk

2 eggs

1/2 teaspoon salt

3 tablespoons beef or bacon drippings

PREPARATION:

In a large bowl, mix together the flour, milk, eggs and salt. Using an electric mixer, beat 5 minutes, until smooth. Cover and refrigerate 1 hour.
